Official Title: Treatment of of Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease With Mesenchymal Stromal Cells. A Phase III Randomized Open Label Multi-center Study in Southern China.

Brief Summary: Chronic Graft-versus-Host Disease (cGvHD) is a potentially lethal disorder. A variety of second line immunosuppressive agents have been investigated but no optimal treatment has emerged. There is therefore a need for novel treatment strategies. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) exhibit immunomodulatory properties and a recent pilot study suggests a response rate of 70% in steroid- refractory patients. In the present randomized study the efficacy and safety of MSC treatment will be further studied in patients with cGvHD.

Detailed Summary:
Sponsor: Guangdong General Hospital

Current Primary Outcome: Proportion of patients responding to treatment of cGvHD with MSC [ Time Frame: 90 days ]

Original Primary Outcome: Same as current

Current Secondary Outcome:

  • Overall survival [ Time Frame: 2 year ]
  • Progression-free survival [ Time Frame: 2 year ]
  • Time without systemic immunosuppression [ Time Frame: 2 year ]
  • Cumulative incidents of non-relapse mortality [ Time Frame: 2 year ]
  • Adverse events [ Time Frame: 2 year ]


Original Secondary Outcome: Same as current
